7th Grade Weekly News, October 27

Halloween is on Tuesday. Students are allowed to come in costumes but please be sure the costumes are safe and school appropriate. We ask that students do not wear masks, bring in props (especially weapons), inflatable costumes, or pajamas. While all these items are great for trick or treating, they tend to cause a disturbance in a school setting. We appreciate your support.

We will be having our annual Veterans Day Parade on November 13. Please see the flyer below. This is a wonderful event where we honor our Strongsville veterans and their families.

Have a great week!!!

Open House Slideshow

A couple key points from the slide show:

Detentions

• No longer after school
• Will be served at 7:00 am and students need to report at that time to the main office
• If a detention is not served, they will be give a Saturday detention
• Saturday detentions will be held at the high school for 2 hours

Progressive Discipline for minor behaviors

• Students can receive 3 detentions then they will be issued a Saturday Detention
• Then students can receive 3 Saturday Detentions then they will be issued In-School Suspension
• Then students can receive 3 In-School Suspensions before out of school suspensions will be issued

**This does not include major behaviors according to the hand book.

Please access our handbook HERE . It is also available on the website. Students and parents should review this together. Students will also review this with staff as well the first week of school.
